Sir, Madam Dispeared Again After Divorce!

Chapter 1063 Trust Me, Okay

Julien's face was livid and disturbing.

If Luke hadn't brought it up, he wouldn't have known.

He didn't suspect that Luke was lying; after all, he could always investigate if he wanted to.

Luke wasn't afraid of it, so it must be true.

Originally, he thought that his teacher and Erin had only changed in character in the past few years.

But it turned out that they had already changed eight years ago.

Or perhaps, they hadn't changed at all.

Perhaps they had always been like this, but they just hadn't shown their true colors in front of him.

To his surprise, they were such despicable people.

"Sorry," Julien said, taking Sydney's hand. "I know that my teacher has always been protective of his people, but I didn't expect him to go so far as doing these things in my name."

Sydney lowered her eyes and said nothing.

Luke pointed at Julien. "Syd, you see, he has admitted that Mr. McDaniel is blindly protective of his people. So, if Julien pursues this matter and looks for his granddaughter to settle the score, the old man naturally will not sit by. He will definitely use his seniority to mediate. I reckon that Erin was so bold just because she knew that her grandpa would protect her."

"I believe what Luke said," Sydney said, rubbing her cheeks. "It's precisely because she knows that her grandfather loves her and is willing to do anything for her that she dares do this. I have reason to believe that Mr. McDaniel will step in and ask you to spare his granddaughter."

"I won't spare her," Julien replied immediately.

Sydney was delighted by his response, but she was still worried. "What if Mr. McDaniel asks you to spare her? After all, you respect him. If you don't agree, aren't you worried that he'll accuse you in public?"

Julien looked at her with a confident smile. "No, there haven't been any capable people in the McDaniel family for two generations, and they have to rely on me to maintain their current status and decency. If I have a fallout with them, they will soon disappear from the ranks of the giants. Although my teacher is muddleheaded when it comes to his descendants, he will see the reality and will not dare threaten me."

"Really?" Sydney straightened up slightly.

"Yeah!" Julien wrapped his arm around her waist.

His hand opened to the width of her slender waist, which felt so soft.

His eyes darkened, and he couldn't help but squeeze it.

Sydney glared at him, intending to knock his hand off.

But she couldn't do so when Luke was around.

And it would be embarrassing if Julien went further and held her. Material © of NôvelDrama.Org.

Sitting across from them, Luke didn't know what was happening behind the desk. He continued to question Julien, "Even if he won't threaten you, he could expel you from his school and ruin your reputation. If that happens, what will the outside world think of you?"

Luke didn't think someone like Julien would take such a risk.

Sydney also looked at Julien.

It wasn't that she wanted to force him; she just couldn't stand the culprit getting away with it through her connections.

She didn't even know that woman. What made Erin think she would undermine their relationship like this?

Besides, she had sworn that she would fight back no matter who the bully was.

So, she wanted to know Julien's attitude. Which side would he take? Would he choose to play down the matter for various reasons?

No matter what Julien chose, she wouldn't let it go easily.

She would be glad if he stood beside her and severely punished Erin.

And she was not afraid even if he yielded to his teacher and let Erin go for the sake of his reputation.

The two recordings she possessed were enough to expose Erin's doing and make her notorious.

She was confident about it.

But now, she still wanted to see Julien's choice.

Julien knew what Sydney meant when she looked at him. He sighed lightly and patted her head. "Give me more trust, okay?"

"If you come up with a definite answer, we will trust you," Luke said before Sydney could answer, tilting his leg upward.

Julien gave him a cold look to silence him.

Luke rolled his eyes and snorted indifferently.

What could Julien do about it? He raised his chin slightly and looked at Julien provocatively.

Julien didn't wrestle with him.

If Luke were not the son of the Chase family and Leaf's friend, Julien wouldn't have given him a chance to be arrogant in front of him.

He ignored Luke's words and turned back to Sydney. "So what if the outside world speculates? Do they dare to challenge me to the face? Besides, have I ever cared about others' opinions?"

Sydney shook her head. "It seems you don't."

"Of course, I don't care," Julien said, smoothing her hair. "Aren't there enough rumors about me? I never cared, not in the past and not in the future. I don't care about being expelled by my teacher. My position is there, and nothing can shake it. Besides, he will not expel me because that means a complete fallout and a promised decline of his family."

In short, no matter what happened, the McDaniel family would not fall out with him, unless they didn't want their current position anymore.

Luke's lips moved as if he wanted to question something, but he couldn't voice his doubts.

Julien had made it so clear.

In any circumstances, the McDaniel family would not dare offend him.

"Now do you believe that I won't compromise because of my teacher?" Julien asked Sydney with a smile.

Sydney hummed in response. "Yeah, but even if Mr. McDaniel won't fall out with you for his granddaughter, he surely will blame you. Then your relationship..."

"It's okay," Julien said, squeezing her hand.

Her fingers were slender and soft, and her skin was so smooth. He found it hard to put it down. "I haven't seen my teacher for many years, and our bonds are not so deep. And I'm not happy about the things he has done in my name. If he can make things right this time, our teacher-student relationship can go on. If not, he'll be a stranger to me."
